What 647 owners told NHTSA about the 2013 Jeep Wrangler 4-door 4xe

ON SATURDAY, I RECEIVED THE SECOND NOTICE FOR RECALL ON MY VEHICLE (N28). I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR MONTHS TO HAVE THIS REPAIR DONE AND THE DEALER HAS A LONG LIST OF CUSTOMERS WAITING FOR PARTS. I AM CURRENTLY NUMBER 30 ON THE LIST. ANOTHER LOCAL DEAL HAS 40 PEOPLE WAITING. THIS IS RIDICULOUS TO WAIT 6+ MONTH FOR REPAIR PARTS FOR A RECALL. THE RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED IN JUNE OF LAST YEAR AND THE DEALER IS GETTING 1 TO 2 SETS OF REPAIR PARTS A WEEK. *JS

I GOT A RECALL NOTICE, TOOK THE CAR IN SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR INSPECTION TO DEALER (CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP) AND THEY CONFIRMED RECALL AND SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER THE PART. DEALER NOW, TWO MONTHS LATER TELLS ME THE MANUFACTURER IS ONLY RELEASING 1 PART A WEEK FOR RECALL CORRECTION. THIS SEEMS TO BE A POOR WAY OF REPAIRING RECALLS AS THE RISK CONTINUES.. DOES CHRYSLER TAKE THESE THINGS SERIOUSLY? *TR

ON FRIDAY MARCH 14, 2014 I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 1 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER ON HARMONY CHURCH ROAD (ROUTE 704) ON MY WAY TO MY SON'S ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. MY DAUGHTER WAS IN A CAR SEAT IN THE BACK SEAT, DIRECTLY BEHIND THE PASSENGER SEAT. WHILE EN ROUTE, MY 2013 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED HIT DRIFTED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT TIRE WAS PULLED INTO SOFT MUD. I LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE WAS PULLED TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND I WENT OFF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE STRUCK A TREE AND VARIOUS BUSHES. THE LOUDOUN COUNTY SHERIFF?S DEPARTMENT AND LOUDOUN COUNTY FIRE AND RESCUE RESPONDED TO THE SCENE. MY HUSBAND AND I RECENTLY PUT LARGER TIRES AND RIMS ON THE JEEP AND A 3? LIFT KIT. MY HUSBAND COMMENTED THAT WITH THE LARGER TIRES AND THE RAISED HEIGHT, THE JEEP WAS MORE DIFFICULT TO CONTROL ON THE ROAD AND I HAD NOTICED THE VEHICLE VISIBLY ?WANDER? ON THE ROAD WHEN I HAD FOLLOWED MY HUSBAND WHILE HE WAS DRIVING THE JEEP. THE SHERIFF?S DEPARTMENT CALLED MY HUSBAND AT HOME AND HE RESPONDED TO THE ACCIDENT SCENE AND TOOK OUR DAUGHTER. I SUSTAINED INJURES IN THE COLLISION, BUT MY DAUGHTER WAS UNHARMED. THE JEEP?S AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY AND I SUSTAINED A FRACTURED NOSE, FACIAL LACERATIONS, FACIAL CONTUSIONS AND A CONTUSION TO MY STERNUM. I WAS TAKEN BY AMBULANCE TO LEESBURG HOSPITAL AT 224 CORNWALL STREET. *TR

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE N28/NHTSA 13V-234 FOR THE TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER TUBE IN OCT. 2013. 5 MONTHS LATER I'M STILL BEING TOLD BY MY DEALER THAT I'M ON A WAITING LIST TO HAVE THIS TAKEN CARE OF. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE NHTSA'S DEFINITION OF REMEDYING THIS DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME IS, HOWEVER, 5 MONTHS DEFINITELY SEEMS EXCESSIVE TO ME FOR A RECALL THAT STATES "THE LOSS OF TRANSMISSION FUNCTION MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH". *TR
